I cannot think or comprehend of anything more cucked than writing BSD-licensed software. Honestly, think about it rationally. You are designing, programming, debugging and distributing a piece of software for any number of years solely so it can go and get used in proprietary projects by corporations. All the hard work you put into your beautiful software - writing good documentation, making optimizations, making sure it runs well on other machines, formatting it, troubleshooting it. All of it has one simple result: its codebase is more enjoyable for proprietary projects.
Wrote the perfect software? Great. Who benefits? If you’re lucky, a random corporation who had nothing to do with the way it was developed, who uses it. That corporation gets to use it in spyware and DRM, like Minix and IME. It gets the benefits of the software’s innovation and optimization that came from the way you programmed it.
As a programmer who writes BSD-licensed software, you are LITERALLY dedicating however many years of your life simply to program software for proprietary corporate/government projects to enjoy. It is the ULTIMATE AND FINAL cuck. Think about it logically.
I have noticed a disturbing lack of “cuck license” copypasta in the comments.
